Welcome Information Connoisseurs

You’ve heard the old joke, “I’ve got good news and bad news," the jet pilot tells the passengers. “The bad news is, we're lost. The good news is, we're making good time."

I’ve got good news and and not so good news about my much anticipated (thank you!) book, The Occult Renaissance Church of Rome, now nearly four years in the making. The bad news: it won’t be released until Lent. The good news: I’m making excellent progress.

The book is essentially written, and while I don’t want to claim for myself the laurel of a perfectionist, I can say that I am going through it with care on its final reading before it is turned over to our expert proof-reader in Texas, and I can’t keep myself from adding details! Every day (yes, day) I obtain more. I eat and sleep the Renaissance — the Kabbalah in the Renaissance, the popes in the Renaissance (Innocent VIII, Alexander VI, Julius II, Leo X, Adrian VI, Clement VII, Paul III and on and on); then there’s Ficino, Reuchlin, Viterbo, Medici, etc. etc. The material seems to be inexhaustible and highly significant. How can I leave the datum out from over there, I ask myself — and this fact — and that one!

How do I stop writing this history?

The extent of the conspiracies against the Church of Jesus Christ on the part of Renaissance popes and their hierarchies is often of such a depth that one almost needs wings to stay above it and not drown. I could write this book for another year with no lack of material — however, colleagues, benefactors and would-be customers have said, in the main — basta! (enough). So basta it is, as I fine-tooth comb the final sections.

At present, I’m reviewing the section on Renaissance-papal sponsorship of the Talmud and Kabbalah. “But Hoffman, the Church burned the Talmud!,” you protest. Right. But that came later, and even then it was fraught with compromise, trade-offs (in one case, burning the Talmud so as to save 2,000 copies of the Kabbalah), and unimaginable skullduggery. After the Talmudic horse had decisively departed the Augean stables of the Vatican, then and only then was there a theatrical move against the Talmud.

Of course there were many good, solid conservative churchmen who opposed all this. One of the best of them comes to mind: Girolamo Savonarola. He was burned for his trouble, after which Neoplatonic-Hermetic-Kabbalists were appointed cardinals, and elected as popes. It didn’t start with the Enlightenment, folks. The spiritual and ideological progenitors of the Second Vatican Council lived in Italy (mostly), more than 200 years before Rousseau and Kant.

When I finish the final inspection of the manuscript — I work 5 am to 10 pm, with breaks for lunch, supper, walking a few miles, seeing my family and shoveling the roof (I live in north Idaho) — the ms. goes to the proof-reader, while I do the index. After that, it’s bound for our superb, elite printer in the east. We’d love to publish the book on Ash Wednesday, but it may be a few days or (gulp) a couple of weeks afterward, but nevertheless during Lent, the time for reflection.

I am grateful to the benefactors who have made this history possible. I never take it for granted that I have the luxury of working full time as a historian, and it seems that God has opened many doors to make this volume's completion possible, though as I look over the last sections, still astonished over the degree of the usurpation that transformed the Catholic Church into the Church of Rome, I sometimes wonder if some of the book’s readers will prepare a fiery reception (auto-da-fé ) for yours truly.

Will I alienate, anger and lose donors, customers and friends after The Occult Renaissance Church of Rome is published? I am a very impractical person. As long as I retain the friendship of God, all will be well!

P.S. Orders will be taken circa February 25. Please don’t enquire until then. Thank you.

Why has Martin Luther King been made synonymous with Black American advancement? Mr. King destroyed the right of every American (Black and White) to choose who they will hire in their business, and who they may house on their private property. We don’t see how the abridgment of these rights has come to be known as “civil rights.” Is this not purely Orwellian?

The psychologically-crippling notion of Black entitlement and victimhood is advanced by the cult of King. Any good parent knows that if you raise your child to believe he or she is “entitled” to special treatment, and is a “victim” of injustice, you will create a psychological basket case. Why is this considered “empowerment”? Is it not likely that the Cryptocracy, through Orwellian-hypnotic “civil rights movement” cant, is attempting to enslave Black people mentally?

Is not true empowerment predicated on taking personal responsibility for one’s life, and blaming one’s self first for setbacks and failures? Is this not the mentality of a free person, rather than a slave?

Al Sharpton held a rally over the weekend with a cabal of identity-politics’ demagogues. They put forth a laundry list of grievances and demands. These contained not a word about the need to end Black-on-Black murder and mayhem, which is the single greatest act of anti-Black violence in America, as we see in Chicago.

Neither were there any words against those teachers' unions that obstruct school choice and charter schools for Black youth, who otherwise fail because their schools fail them. Contrary to White racist assumptions, if Black students were accorded a classical education from first grade onward, such as the Boston Latin School once provided, and a home environment that nurtured that education, Blacks could compete successfully, and the blight of endless cycles of poverty and crime could be broken. The public schools since the late ‘60s have failed America’s children, urban and rural, White and Black. “Civil Rights icons” like John Lewis and Al Sharpton are offering only more of the same catastrophic failure.

Martin Luther King is a bizarre exemplar for Blacks. His FBI file containing evidence of his lecherous doings with a long string of White floozies with whom he copulated and physically assaulted, is sealed until 2027. It is a matter of public record however, that he was a serial adulterer who cheated on his wife and his PhD. thesis. His doctorate has not been withdrawn solely for reasons of political correctness. He was murdered by the Establishment itself when his usefulness began to unravel as his pose as a pacifist was increasingly compromised by the violence attending his appearances.

Ronald Reagan sealed the imposition of the King-cult on America when he made King’s birthday a national holiday, which has ushered into the public schools an indoctrination course for even young children in how “Martin Luther King saved us.”

The media terms Trump-hater Rep. John Lewis (D-Georgia), a Civil Rights “icon.” This is Leftist dogma imposed as an axiom. When do we ever read about a “Right to Life icon” who saved the human rights of babies from abortionists? Or of a patriot like Phyllis Schlafly who fought for Biblical standards in America, being lauded and commemorated “iconically"?

There is more at work here than just an agenda of divide-and-conquer-the-races. There is a hidden and ancient anti-Black racism flourishing in the shadows of our Overlords’ domain. It stems from a midrashic theology which has taught for millennia the lie that it was a Black man who shamed Noah on the Ark. It is derived from a formal doctrine that Black people are sub-human (Maimonides, Guide of the Perplexed, Shlomo Pines translation).

It emanates from an American pop cultural trend of non-Christian immigrants from Eastern Europe arriving on these shores, gaining influence in Hollywood in the early 20th century, and then using it in movies and on the stage to systematically mock Black people, whose ancestors had been in this country for 300 years — as “Steppin Fetchit” retards and buffoons — just as the same Hollywood has given similar treatment since the 1970s to rural white “Deplorables.”

Lo and behold, Blacks and Whites of good will have the same enemy — an enemy which is hell-bent on guaranteeing that they never realize that fact.

The on-going idolization of Martin Luther King ensures that we remain divided, and that Black Americans continue to wear the chains of illusion and defeat.
